The strategy of a Trostani deck is pretty straightforward: ramp up quickly, create lots of creature tokens while playing big creatures, and lean into lifegain synergies
He shuts down larger spells, hurts ramp, storm, buyback, my own Equinaut deck (which likes to play and replay creatures), and countless other decks that either want to cast something big or net multiple spells
What you do with that mana from there is up to you, but the Hireling even spots you a free mana sink if you need to remove some creatures
